After Max Fried <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/12/10/sports/yankees-land-max-fried-after-juan-soto-disappointment/">signed his eight-year deal with the Yankees</a>, Burnes, the 2021 NL CY Young winner was the top pitcher still hanging on the market.

But the four-time All-Star will now join a Diamondbacks team that’s one year removed from winning the NL pennant.

Last year with the Orioles, the righty pitched a 2.92 ERA over 194¹/₃ innings.

The 30-year-old has a 3.19 ERA and 1.06 WHIP across seven seasons.
